One-minute whole-brain magnetization transfer ratio imaging with intrinsic B1-correction.

abstract：PURPOSE:Measurement of venous oxygenation (Yv) is a critical step toward quantitative assessment of brain oxygen metabolism, a key index in many brain disorders. The present study aims to develop a noninvasive, rapid, and reproducible method to measure Yv in a vessel-specific manner. THEORY:The method, T2-Relaxation-U...
